2nd Annual Taming TechnoStress: Staying Healthy in the Tech Workplace.
We at DigitalEve Philly celebrated our 1-year anniversary with a repeat performance of last year's kick-off event. Last year, the purpose behind Taming TechnoStress was to preserve our physical and psychological selves in the wake of a booming tech economy. This year, the same safeguards are needed to protect us during the recent tech shake up. Fewer people are doing more work to make up for those of us lost to lay-offs. The demands of a massive workload and the pressure associated with unemployment both lead to an incredible amount of TechnoStress. One of the most effective and easiest ways to combat this condition is to be active outdoors. Our fearless leader and former fitness professional, Anne Cecil, put the participants through their paces during a 45-minute lunch time walk, supplemented with various exercises that used the available "equipment" provided by Philadelphia's city infrastructure. The only requirement was to wear comfortable clothing and a good pair of walking shoes. The program was free and sponsored by SmartLynx.
